This past weekend I installed Euro Rails from a V70 XC. Darn they look hot. Don't mind the dirty car. It's snowing out, and the weather hasn't been nice enough to warrant a wash.

185 shipped from Erie Vovo. It came with all necessary pieces for install (screws, clips, tabs, and the cut to length trim pieces).

Took roughly 30 min to 1 hour to install.

Actually, I am looking for the same thing as Kevin. Need the rain rails that were replaced by the Euro rails. Pheta. Anything?
